About this ebook

"An intriguing look at history and moral dilemmas through a fantasy lens"

Kirkus Reviews

1748. Elewa is the ‘Daughter of Peace’, the young mediator charged with holding a fragile truce in her West African kingdom.

Then she discovers Yeseni — a gift that lets her see any moment in time and step through it. A vision drags her into the hold of a slave ship. If she intervenes, she might change the past.
